It seems unclear in the rules whether an antagonist is supposed to be a full-fledged character (in game mechanics terms, meaning they have hero points, etc.) or just a resistance as part of the pass/fail cycle. There are parts of the rules that seem to support both ideas. I've already searched through the messages, I'm sorry if this has been answered already and I missed it.
